My thought is that you are right.

A rock tumbler doesn't roll the edge over like a dryer. It would only remove the roughness of the coin, making a coin look more like a polished slug.

Once I saw the reverse was similar to the obverse, that nailed it. Yep, a "perfect" drier coin. Definitely PMD.

Happy Easter!
